Alright...

First uninstall everything related to the codec pack (also remove all of the settings when asked). To remove madVR run uninstall.bat in madVR folder as admin then remove the folder. Reboot.

1.)Install MPC-HC (64bit if youre on 64bit Windows)
2.)Get latest madVR and extract it somewhere in program files. Run install.bat to install it, then run restore_default_settings.bat. Do not remove the madVR folder afterward.
3.)Get xysubfilter beta (64 bit if youre on 64bit Windows). Installation process is similar to madVR.

After you installed everything. Open MPC-HC's settings and chose madVR under Options -> Playback Output -> DirectShow Video. Chose XySubFilter under Subtitle Renderer.

Go to Options -> Internal Filters, click on Video decoder, and select None in the Hardware Decoder to use.

Play some video and click on madVR -> Edit settings.

Go to Processing -> artifact removal and check reduce banding artifact and reduce ringing artifacts.

Cont.

Go to Processing -> zoom control and set move subtitles: to ... into active video area.

Go to Rendering -> general settings and check use Direct3D 11 for presentation.

Go to Rendering -> smooth motion. Tick enable smooth motion frame rate conversion.

Go to Rendering -> trade quality for performance and uncheck everything.

Thats pretty much it. madVR at defaults it alright. If you have a decent video card then follow the next and last step.

Scaling algorithms:
Chroma: NGU Anti Alias (medium).
Image downscaling: SSIM 2D strength 100% + tick scale in linear light and activate anti-ringing filter.
Image upscaling: Doubling: NGU Anti Alias. Algorithm quality: medium (luma doubling); Jinc AR (upscaling algo); use image downscaling settings (downscaling algo). Leave everything else as Let madVR decide.

Go to Rendering -> dithering. Chose Error Diffusion 2.

TADAM. Play some videos and monitor your OSD (ctrl+J) for dropped frames. If you get little bit of them at the start of playback then everything is fine. If they accumulate ALOT during playback than your madVR settings are overkill for your video card. Also if you have nvidia card then set your power profile to adaptive in nvidia settings.

what the fuck
i just rather install vlc

Also disable all "COLOR and VIDEO ENCHANCERS" in your video drivers settings.

Thats for maximum quality. If you want decent quality then just only do all in

Install mpv, add opengl-hq to config file. If that's too much effort, install VLC.

Why is mplayer supposedly better than vlc?

kcp isnt needed in this day and age.

vlc skips frames and cant play 4k smoothly, mpc has way greater compatability. Still mpv is better than both, yes i fell for the shill threads but they were correct all along

smplayer and enable opengl-hq in settings

How is mpv better than mpc exactly?

It's not.

There is no good media playing solution, and you shouldn't be playing media on your computer.

>you shouldn't be playing media on your computer.
But it produces better results than any Samsung or w.e upscaler? So why not then?

open source and fast developement. It adapts new standards fast and overall looks nicer (lack of ui).

>(ctrl+J) for dropped frames.

Can I do this with MPV?

This will be instaled in a dumpster secondary machine so I can't go for the turboquality stuff

AssFilterMod subs looks better.

a minor thing: video seeking is much faster
